Chapter 456: Destroy the Divine Avatar! All Shall Submit!

"Aaah! How is this possible!"

In the sky, the voice of the Divine Avatar lost its composure for the first time!

On the ground, in the Kingdom of Horden, countless spectators gaped with open mouths.

The Divine Avatar's panicked voice made these ordinary people doubt their own ears—they all thought they had misheard!

Heaven, was that really their god's voice?

Their god—the invincible god, whose expression and tone had always radiated supreme authority—how could he possibly make such a sound?

No, no, they must have misheard!

Yeah, they must have misheard!

"I must have misheard—damn it, the cold and heat have scrambled my head!"

On the ground, a citizen of the Kingdom of Horden muttered to himself.

Under intense self-suggestion, this man truly believed he had misheard.

When he told the person beside him, yes—that person also thought they must have misheard.

Thus, a bizarre spectacle emerged among the watching crowd.

Tens of thousands believed they had misheard.

"That couldn't possibly be our god's voice!"

Some even comforted themselves this way, though they had heard it clearly.

Some even believed it was the Flame Lord's trick—the Flame Lord had deliberately mimicked their god's voice to disrupt their minds.

When people are desperate, to prevent their beliefs from collapsing, their imaginations can explode!

On the battlefield, many soldiers of the Kingdom of Horden had also heard their god's voice.

Warriors still fighting froze upon hearing the Divine Avatar's voice.

Soldiers in the rear formations couldn't help but raise their heads to gaze at the sky.

Soon, they saw something they would never forget!

In the sky, the boundless flames still raged—and within those flames, their god was entirely engulfed in fire!

The fire burning on their god's body was clearly many times deeper in color than the surrounding flames.

When this fire burned, its tongues shot hundreds of meters into the air; even from such a distance, it looked terrifying!

"Aaah! How could you be this strong! You can't be this strong!"

In the sky, the Divine Avatar's cry rang out again!

This cry was not a scream of pain, but more like a reaction to immense shock!

The Divine Avatar's psyche had shattered!

Lin Yan's strength had completely exceeded his expectations.

Even a normal Saint Realm cultivator would be a match for this avatar!

Moreover, ordinary Saint Realm cultivators would avoid provoking him—because unless a Saint Realm never broke through, once their Divine Core formed, they must ascend to To the Heavenly Realm; if they angered him, what if they later encountered him after becoming a god?

Although the Heavenly Realm is vast, one fears the unlikely—and besides, Saint Realm cultivators knew nothing of the conditions in To the Heavenly Realm.

Of course, he still dared not descend a Saint Realm-level avatar—first, the cost was too great; second, when the temptation became great enough, more people would take desperate risks!

He believed that if the Flame Lord merely descended power, he could never possibly match his avatar.

Every god could actually calculate the weakening of the Heavenly Realm barrier.

For a god, descending an avatar equivalent to a Legendary-level power was already a highly risky act.

Risky, but the reward was immense—if he succeeded in defeating the Flame Lord this time, bringing the Kingdom of Hellion and Yan Country under his rule, then swiftly conquering the Hunhe Duchy, he would profit enormously.

In this god's view, the Flame Lord was at most a second-tier god; unless he reached the third tier, the Flame Lord in To the Heavenly Realm could do nothing to his avatar.

But now, the Flame Lord's flames had effortlessly burned through his ice-based attacks!

Yet the Flame Lord had not descended an avatar—how could he possess such divine power?

Could it be that the Flame Lord was a third-tier god!

But if he were a third-tier god, why the hell was he fixated on a tiny kingdom like mine!

Besides, he had some knowledge of the Flame Lord—he knew the Flame Lord's original realm was merely a remote barbarian kingdom!

This left him utterly baffled.

But he no longer needed to understand.

Because after testing the power of the fire rule, Lin Yan's flames had already reached his body.

The Divine Avatar was not a divine body—it could not withstand the burning of Lin Yan's flames.

He did not give up struggling, continuing to cast ice laws upon himself.

This was applying the ice law directly onto his own form.

But it had no effect whatsoever.

Lin Yan's flames soon turned him into a giant ball of fire!

"Boom!"

As the flames burned the Divine Avatar's body, Lin Yan's fire surged even higher!

"Aaahhh~~"

The Divine Avatar let out a cry of bitter resistance!

He was truly unwilling!

He had expended so much power, invested so much effort to descend this avatar, expecting to instantly secure victory and sweep up all these kingdoms east of the Eternal Night Empire.

But now, his grand plan had not only failed.

His Divine Avatar was about to be destroyed!

Heaven expended nearly one-fifth of its power to manifest this divine avatar.

What an immense amount of power that was!

Damn it!

Damn this heavenly barrier!

One-fifth of his power, in Heaven, could effortlessly kill countless Ninth Ranks!

But upon descending to the Continent of Gods, it was reduced to nothing more than Ninth Rank level.

Even if it could unleash Saint Domain strength, it was still only Ninth Rank level!

Yet even so, it was defeated by the Lord of Flames!

Even the divine avatar was lost!

The Lord of Flames' fire was too terrifying—he had no chance to flee, only to let out a cry of bitter despair!

On the ground, countless citizens of the Hutton Kingdom stared blankly at the sky.

At this moment, they could no longer deceive themselves.

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

Their god had been defeated!

No, it was more than just defeat.

Their god appeared to be burned to death by the Lord of Flames!

Yes, the divine avatar never claimed to be a divine avatar.

The Church had said nothing either.

So to these citizens, it was simply their god who had descended—and been defeated.

And then burned to death!

These citizens had no knowledge of the Realm of the Deities, nor of divine power or cosmic laws.
